After finishing our meal at the Café de l’Observatoire the kids wanted to go to a playground, which as it turned out was co-incidentally right next to a small kiosk, which sold ice cream – I guess they’d been there before. So we descended to the Cable Car (Téléphérique) station a bit lower down on the Salève.

There’s another restaurant (Le Panoramique) here with particularly impressive views of Geneva and it’s lake.
